I'm just not hungry at all. Nothing sounds appetizing at all. Every time I even think about eating I feel a bit sick.

Really? Never had projectile vomit flu and end up going all day without eating?

I've done it a few times, mainly when I don't feel well and my appetite is gone.

I do it all the time. I got into the habit of eating all my meals at work and I'd forget to eat on my offs days. On the rare occasions u had 3 days off in a row the hunger would hit me out of no where in that 3rd day.

I usually eat at least once a day, if I can. But some days, I sleep most, if not the whole day, away

My hunger is usually based around habit. So if it's not my habit to eat at that time or place it takes me a lot longer to get hungry

I can kind of be like that. For me, works starts between 2:30 and 4:00. And when I get there, I like to eat breakfast within the hour. If I wait too long, I start feeling really hungry. Yet, I dont feel the same when Im home and that time hits So, its kind of like that where my hunger strikes based on my habit. Same with Friday night and pizza Haha.

"Is it ok to do a fairly common world wide religious practice people have done for thousands of years?" Why yes it is. Why are all your threads devoid of common sense?

Talking about Ramadan?

They eat of a day. Just not while the sun is up.

I fast every Sunday. Currently at 31 hours of no food, about 4 hours away from actually eating.

A day is fine however if you go longer you might need at least fluid intake that helps with that. I have in the past been on a drip when in hospital for several days and was null by mouth so take that as you will.

Maybe not water but I always drink plenty of fluids. I theorize it's part of why I don't get hungry easily. Stomach stays full of liquid

That isn't the only religious reason. But just in general there are a number of studies that show a variety of health benefits from fasting as a general life practice.

It's just the main one I know of. I hated dealing with it working a prison during covid lol. Having to deliver their food too them since the chow hall was shut down.

Totally normal. I occasionally skip a day's meals if I'm just not that hungry.

Your body can go a month without food. It's not healthy to do that, but it's possible. I put that to the test when I was a university student, because I got a mouth infection that basically rendered me unable to eat or drink anything other than water. I couldn't eat for almost two weeks and I have a pretty lean build to begin with, so I was absolutely gaunt at the end of it.

Some people do week, 2 week, 3 week fasts and are perfectly fine but there's a correct way to do it and a wrong way to do it.

Colon cancer? I rather eat and not get headaches. I only fast when I do a yearly PHA. Even at 8 to 12 hours I start getting headaches.

It's not going to hurt you to do it for a day or two, but you generally shouldn't make a habit of it unless you've actually researched how to fast safely.

I would at least get some calories in. You can always drink something light like vegetable or fruit juice or milk or something.

Fasting isn't really ideal unless you're trying to lose weight.
